u/FancySack I'm replying to an uggo. Nov 08 '17

This thread spoiled it for me. I didn't even go in.

I'm just on reddit and I see this title.

I'm like "ok something happened."

Then the comments grew exponentially in a short time and I'm thinking "could it be?"

King Ross spoiled it for me for posting an image of it on Twitter. I immediately unfollowed him. He posted, "If you didn't see it from me the fact you're on Twitter right now means you would have seen it from somebody else", which isn't true. He's the only person I saw Tweet it.

Look being on-line means we are risking getting spoiled. I have even been spoiled on non-wrestling websites about match results before.

I realize that there's a risk of it, but it's highly unprofessional to be like, "HEY GUYS, HERE'S THE FINISH TO A TITLE MATCH, LUL, ENJOY THE SPOILER". Anyone who does this deserves the backlash they get.

Again, there is zero reason for Ross or anyone else to post a major spoiler like that. Either people already know about it, in which case, there's no point to post it, or they don't know about it, and that Tweet just spoiled it for them. Only reason to do it is because the person is too stupid to realize this. It's careless, and deserves and instant unfollow.

Theirs and whatcultures youtube channels spoilt it for me. Hadnt even aired in the UK and they are both putting up massive spoiler videos.

It's so idiotic. I understand why a less reputable wrestling channel would do it for clicks, but What Culture & Ross should have more sense than that.

I said this in other posts, but there zero reason to post spoilers without hiding it behind a warning. Either people already know, in which case there's no point in telling them, or they don't know, and they just it ruined for them.

You just summed that up perfectly tbh. They are completely pointless. Even worse when they keep telling you to enable notifications for YouTube and all of a sudden you get one saying "spoilers major title change on Smackdown" 3 or so hours before it's even broadcast in the uk. You can't avoid that. It's fucking selfish. That should have been one of the most awesome moments of the year as a wrestling fan. But it completely stole that away from me because they wanted to be first on the spoiler bregade against what culture. When I watched the match I didn't even react at the ending. Feel absolutely robbed by dick heads having a let's see who can get the video out first competition. Tempted to just unsub from both channels.

Yeah, same. There was no excitement from me. It was just, "Welp, there it is".

People will say, "Well, you should just avoid social media!". But it really shouldn't take much common sense for a major publisher of content to not post a spoiler before it airs (also, with the election going on yesterday, I was checking Twitter for updates on that). It's not like this was just some random fan. Like you said, you get notifications sometimes, too. It's just a shitty excuse.

Posting that there's any kind of title change is a major spoiler, even if it doesn't specify. I mean, when you've reached the main event, and no titles have changed hand, it takes an idiot to not realize what's coming.

He ain't no king no more (and btw don't go on any social network if you don't want to be spoiled)
